Nice work on the wings and H stab. It's a great fit. Well done.

Engine nacelles
Here are the parts
 assembled    ready to mount  attached to the wing.  Note : I am not happy with the inlet. Its just did not want to cooperate. Also, the upper nacelle to wing forward fairing should have been a separate part for a rounder look. Those will be addressed later. Isaac

It looks like the nacelle fit very nicely to the wing. No gaps or overlaps. The model so far looks great. Very nice work, Isaac.

Landing gear
Not much here and no detail in the bay or the struts. But as I said, this is an average builder model and is still very pleasing.
The wheels are stacked card stock that are glued together and then sanded to shape and size.  painted ( needs a second coat ).  and installed.     Notice that the main doors in the belly of the plane are only open during retract or extension process and thus the model here has them closed correctly. Isaac

Vertical fins
Here are the two end plate vertical fins. You have the option to separate the rudders if you wish.
 here is the junction/attachment location with the horizontal that needs to be trimmed to fit.  fins on.   my engineering comment on the actual plane design : An H type stabilizer is no good for a fighter jet or any high G aircraft. The entire assembly is flimsy and would flutter. By the time you beefed it all, it would be heavier than a single vertical fin. but,,,,, this was only a prototype. Isaac
